An analysis of scientific data on the botanical description, distribution area and biological properties of herbaceous plants of the Asteraceae family is given: chamomile, common yarrow, and calendula officinalis. The possibilities of practical application of plant materials for medical purposes are shown. A comparative analysis of the chemical composition of chamomile, common yarrow and calendula officinalis is given. Lipids, amino acids, flavonoids, phenolic acids, and vitamins were identified in the composition of plants. Quantitative analysis of lipids and flavonoids was carried out. As a result of the study, the lipid content in vegetable raw materials was found to be from 2.09 to 3.24%, as well as the content of flavonoids in terms of quercetin ranging from 3.52 to 4.08%.
